This is how the list looks like when I click the "default font" combo (90.42 KB, image/jpeg)

Description Ovidiu Gheorghioiu 2002-03-22 22:08:12 UTC 
The combo box (I believe that's what it's called) in gtk 2.0.0 does not
handle long lists very well. I noticed this in nautilus, when selecting a
font. The list of fonts is just a bit taller than the screen and ... check
the attached screenshots to see what's happening.
